Yeah Crew!
I'm the Sound Crew chief for my HS's theatre department, and we're
switching entirely over to minidisc for the next show... Although we'll
probably run off of a portable as my school doesn't buy us anything.  We're
producing Fiddler on the Roof, but with a full pit (speaking of which, if
anyone has any good rooster/chicken sounds, I'd appreciate them :)  ).
Anyway, I didn't actually have any suggestions, just wanted to acknowledge
the existence HS sound techs using MD.
Oh, and 15 full productions a year? I'm duly impressed.
